The Substitute Woman on the First Night
Finished - Happiness

Happy reading!

While my mind was still filled with question marks that were increasingly pointing towards suspicion, suddenly a man's voice came from behind me. The man passed me and stood right next to Bella. I still stared questioningly at the man who was in front of my eyes.

"You're watching here too, sir?" ask the man who knows what his name is. But from his style of speech, he sounded so respectful to Delano.

"Yes, because only this mall is in the direction of my house."

"This must be Lissa's mother, sir? Congratulations, Mom, on your pregnancy. Sorry when Mom was still in the hospital I couldn't come because there were some meetings that I had to handle as long as Mr. Delano didn't go to the office."

From the man's words, I can immediately guess if the man who is now in front of me is my husband's assistant in the company.

"Not to think about. By helping out with my husband's work, that was more than enough. Thank you, yeah." After a few seconds of silence to digest his words, I answered what Delano's assistant said, which I still do not know what his name is.

"Lissa, this is my assistant at the office, his name is Alvin Prasetya. And, Bella is her boyfriend."

Of course I was surprised by what my husband said. However, at least the words were able to eliminate the suspicion that had disturbed my calm. I smiled too. I looked at my husband's face and came back to believe that he was indeed a good man who couldn't possibly betray me.

"Would it be that Bella was crying in my husband's room that Alvin was there?" my mind is still curious about all that. In the end, I decided to ask Delano after Alvin and Bella left because I heard a call from the announcement that the room they were watching was open.

"No, I can ask you something, right?" With a bad feeling I tried to ask permission first. I hope Delano doesn't mind the questions I'm going to ask.

"Just ask, honey. Why?"

"I haven't had the chance to ask you about the woman in your study when I came to your office, was that Bella?"

Delano looked at me after stopping his footsteps. "The woman was indeed Bella, but back then, I wasn't in my room because after Alvin came, I decided to get out of the room and leave them there."

"So, that's the story."

"Yes, at that time they were having problems because Mr. Chandra did not approve of their relationship. Even so, Bella still wants to maintain her relationship with Alvin, even though she has to be stealthy as it is today."

"Yes that's it. Why are you still thinking about it? Don't you think Bella's crying in my arms?" Delano seemed to be interrogating me. It made me nervous and embarrassed to answer.

"Sorry yes, No ...." Only those words were finally spoken after I was at a loss as to what to answer. I honestly don't want to have strange thoughts. But somehow all of this is hard to control. That jealousy can come suddenly when I start to feel afraid of losing my husband.

"Not to apologize, honey. I'm glad you're jealous like this. That's the sign, you really love me." Delano said that while nudging my arm with a little energy. He was teasing me because he knew I was jealous of Bella.

"Ih, what the hell are you? You become this stuff. I don't love you." I purposely said that while passing through Delano's body without looking at it.

"Lissa, how are you?" With quick steps, Delano caught up with me. No more happy voices than before. He sounded gloomy like he was losing the energy to make a sound.

Knowing that Delano was chasing me, I sped up my footsteps so that my husband could not easily follow. Until finally, after arriving at the car park, Delano managed to hold my body right next to our car.

"Tell me one more time that you don't love me!" Delano looked at me so deeply. The look in his eyes was really mesmerizing in my eyes. Makes me so silent because in addition to the look in his eyes, my husband's handsome face is very comfortable to keep looking at.

"I'm not in love, No. But, a lot of love." I managed to escape with agility. Get in the car first after I open the car's central lock with the key I hold, then take refuge there from my husband's arms. Of course I'm embarrassed if Delano does that in a public place. Moreover, I had seen some visitors notice what we were doing from the chase in the mall hallway to the scene when Delano caught my body and immediately hugged it.

After getting into the car, Delano re-stretched his body until we became so close at the moment.

"No, not here! I'm embarrassed if anyone sees it." With a spoiled voice I blocked Delano's body from getting any closer. He finally obeyed me and started driving his car in a hurry.

"No, be careful. You're in such a hurry?" I looked at Delano in wonder.

"You don't want to be here. So, we gotta get home fast." Delano was unashamedly honest with me. Making the red hue on both of my cheeks start to show.

"That's all you've got, No." A smile came from both corners of my lips. A smile that indicates that I am very happy right now. A happiness that was really so pleasant for me to feel.

Today, the prayers that I often pray to God seem to be completely answered. Prayer where I always hope that someday, a sinner like me can feel happiness. Happiness that is still so long for me to get, but in the end I can feel the moment.
